Once we got home, I went to my room and my dad went downstairs. I grabbed my phone. Breaking news: Tony Stark confronted the Mandarin. I shut down my phone and started to watch some tv.
"Ugh! There's nothing to watch!" I said to myself. I turned off the tv and went downstairs and the doorbell rang. I opened the door for the women.
"Hi, thanks." She said.
"Hey, no problem." She looked at me.
"Right there is fine." My dad said walking behind me with his suits. "Honey, go outside."
"I cant. After you told everyone our address, helicopters are over the place. Thanks to you." I smiled and he, I'm guessing he was looking at the woman.

"You're not the Mandarin." His face helmet lifted. "Are you? Are you?" She smiles and nods.
"You don't remember." She chuckles. What is going on? Should I leave? "Why am I not surprised?"
"Don't take it personally. I don't remember what I had for breakfast."
"Gluten-free waffles." Me and JARVIS said at the same time. Wrong time? Yeah, bad timing.
"That's right."
"Okay, look, I need to be alone with you, someplace not here." She confirmed. Okay, now I should go back to my cave. Slowly walking. Wait! Why am I not walking! Help! "It's urgent."
"Normally, I'll go for that sort of thing but now I'm in a committed relationship." He said walking away. I awkwardly stood there. And I saw a bag dropped down from the ceiling. "It's... With her."
"Tony?" Pepper called. My dad got out of his suit. "Is somebody there?"
"Yeah, it's Maya Hansen."
"Ah.." I said to myself and started to walk with her.
"Old botanist pal." He said. "That I used to know, barely." And he walked up to Maya.
"He's 13." She said. Wait I have a brother? Is this a joke? "No, I need your help." Oh my, thank the gods, I thought if I did, the booger will bother me.
"I'm sorry, with Happy in the hospital, I didn't know we were expecting guests." Pepper said putting her hands on my shoulders.
"We weren't." He said.
"And old girlfriends." She smiled. And they started to talk over one of each other. I just stood there, quietly, having my hands in my pockets. I ignored all what Pepper and my dad said. All I heard was we are going out. Everything became chaos. I took a step back and walked to Maya.
"Crystal, don't you dare go with her!" My dad yelled at me.
"I'm not going anywhere." I told him.
"Guys... Can we, um... Do you need to worry about that?" Maya said looking at the tv. A missile was coming at us. The missile crashed into the house and exploded. I remember that I was in slow motion. I covered my face, and I was pushed back. I saw Pepper and my dad on the other side. I crashed to the floor of the front door. I landed on my back.
"Crystal!" I heard my dad scream. Everything was blurry and I could barely hear anything. I closed my eyes, possibly today was the day I might die. Then I opened my eyes, I forced myself to crawl to get to the door.

"Dad!?" I yelled. "Pepper?!" My voice started to crack. I took deep breathes. I think I'm having a panic attack. I slowed down my breathing. Another missile came. I saw my dad and Pepper. The floor broke, leaving my dad on the other side of the house.
"Find Crystal and get Maya, go!" I heard my dad tell Pepper. I found Pepper, she had Maya.
"Crystal, come on." Pepper said. I slowly got up. She put her arm around me. The repulser fired and sending the three of us flying outside and we screamed. I looked up. I saw how the house was, but I didn't see my dad. I guess I have a few cuts on my face and glass on my legs, arms, and my face. The house was falling apart.
"Dad!" I screamed.
"Oh my god, Tony!" Pepper also yelled. The suit started to get off Pepper, I'm guessing it's going to my dad. Me and Pepper looked up and saw a helicopter crash. I got up and went into the house to look for dad.
"Dad!" I cried. I jogged to where the other side of the house, was ripped apart. I didn't see my dad. I saw all the parts of the house were in the water. Then, Pepper ran to me.
"TONY!"
"DAD!" We both screamed. I started to cry nonstop.
